Famine Bride: Marry into the best in-laws and win
Chapter 188 Home Visit
The Shen family’s house is actually not very big and the sound insulation is not very good. Sometimes, you can almost hear some noise when they are doing something.
In addition, Xu Manyue happened to pass by here. Although the sound in the house was very low, she had good hearing and could hear almost everything clearly.
inside the house.
Lin Luoxia snuggled in Shen Laoer's arms, "A new female teacher has come to Baozhu's class these days. She said her last name is Meng and she came from the city."
"She has a high level of education, but unfortunately her class performance is not good. Baozhu can't even do her homework these days."
"I was thinking, my third sister-in-law is also a teacher at the commune primary school. Why not let her teach Baozhu more? If she has any homework, let Baozhu do it in my third sister-in-law's room."
"Since my third sister-in-law doesn't have to work, she's just sitting around doing nothing. I might as well teach Baozhu a lesson."
Shen Lao Er hesitated, "That won't work. Usually, Baozhu goes to and from school, and it's always the third son's wife who picks her up. If I ask her to help Baozhu with her homework, it will be too much trouble for her."
Lin Luoxia: "What trouble is it? This is just a side thing. My third sister-in-law is a teacher at the school. It's normal for children to ask her some questions. Don't think too much. She won't be unwilling."
Shen Lao Er sighed and said helplessly, "Alright, I won't say anything. Do whatever you want. At worst, I'll lose face and make amends to you and your mother."
"Look at what you're saying. What do you mean by apologizing to us mother and daughter? Don't think I don't know that you ran away again last night."
"Let's make some things clear in advance. You can have fun outside, but don't make trouble in front of me, let alone in front of the children. Otherwise, you should know my temper."
"Today at work, when those women outside your house looked me up and down, I don't believe you didn't see it."
"Okay, okay, stop making trouble. I will pay attention to this matter in the future and will not let them come in front of you. We have been married for so many years, haven't we always been like this? Don't you believe me?"
……
Xu Manyue didn't deliberately go closer to listen, but she managed to hear almost everything.
As for teaching children to study, as long as the children are serious about learning, she is quite happy to teach them. After all, she should do her job well. Personally, Baozhu is her niece, so she can teach her some knowledge when she has time.
Yu Gong, she is a teacher and Baozhu is a student at school. If the child encounters any questions, she will answer them even at home.
But this couple has put all their little thoughts on the table, which inevitably makes people feel uncomfortable.
It seems that I should find something to keep them busy, instead of staring at her and plotting against her all day long.
……
The next day, as soon as Xu Manyue arrived at school, she met Meng Xiao who was also rushing to class. Shen Baozhu subconsciously hid behind her.
Xu Manyue noticed her avoidance and didn't tolerate her at all. She directly pulled Shen Baozhu out and said, "Baozhu, say hello to your teacher."
Shen Baozhu was forced to step forward and yelled, "Hello, Teacher Meng."
Meng Xiao was a little surprised, "Teacher Xu, who are you and Shen?"
When she came here before, she knew that many girls in the countryside would get married and have children at the age of fifteen or sixteen. She heard that Xu Manyue had been married for a long time.
Xu Manyue saw that she had misunderstood, "Teacher Meng, she is my niece."
"So she's your niece. I was planning to visit a student's home today. How about I go with you after work?"
"I was just worrying about how I could find the way by myself." Meng Xiao laughed.
Xu Manyue smiled and said, "Okay, then you can come with us after class today."
It seems that Lin Luoxia and her husband are busy.
……
After class in the afternoon.
Meng Xiao had already brought Shen Baozhu and was waiting for Xu Manyue at the classroom door.
Not long after, Xu Manyue came out after finishing her class, and she picked up the pastries in her hand.
"Teacher Xu, this is my first home visit and I don't know what to bring, so I went to town and bought a bag of peach cakes. I don't know if that will work."
Xu Manyue was stunned for a moment, then waved her hand. "No need, Teacher Meng. There's no need to bring such expensive gifts for a home visit. You should take them back and keep them for yourself."
Peach pastry is similar to malted milk, and is something that only city dwellers can afford.
The country people are almost starving to death, so why would they spend several dollars to go to the food store in town to buy these expensive things?
Meng Xiao breathed a sigh of relief when she heard the word "valuable". She was not from here and didn't know if it was okay to give this as a gift during a visit. But it is better to give a light gift than a heavy one.
Besides, a bag of peach cakes was not expensive to her.
"It's okay, it's just a bag of peach cakes. I don't like eating these things, so it would be a waste if I took them back. It's just right for the child."
Upon hearing this, Xu Manyue also understood that the background of her new colleague might be more unusual than she had imagined.
But money should not be exposed, no matter where you are, even in the Qingshan Brigade where she is, not everyone is a good person.
There is famine everywhere now, and under certain circumstances, the bottom line of human nature can drop infinitely.
To put it bluntly, she couldn't guarantee it even for the Shen family.
Xu Manyue thought about it and pulled her aside and told her about the situation of several surrounding teams.
Of course, she spoke more tactfully and did not mention anyone directly.
But Meng Xiao still understood the underlying meaning. She couldn't help but break out in a cold sweat and her face turned slightly pale.
She had never really considered these issues. She thought that bringing a bag of peach cakes was not a valuable item. Now it seems that she has to be more cautious in the future.
Meng Xiao looked at Xu Manyue gratefully, "Teacher Xu, thank you for your reminder today. I will be more careful next time."
"Then please wait here for me. I'll go back to the dormitory first."
Xu Manyue nodded, "Okay, I'll wait for you here."
After everyone left, Shen Baozhu walked over to her side, gently tugged at her sleeve, and asked cautiously, "Auntie, is the teacher not going to visit the family anymore?"
Thinking about meeting Meng Xiao today, the child subconsciously hid behind her and didn't even want to call her teacher.
Xu Manyue squatted down and looked directly into Shen Baozhu's eyes.
"Baozhu, a good child should be polite. You can't hide when you see a teacher, and you should take the initiative to greet the teacher."
"Ms. Meng is a very gentle teacher. She's visiting your home because she's responsible for you. When you see her again later, remember not to hide behind me anymore, and be sure to call for help."
Shen Baozhu bit her lip and whispered, "Auntie, you are lying. Teacher Meng is not gentle at all. She is very fierce in class."
